1Cisco IOS XR Cartridge Overview andInstallation
This chapter gives a brief overview of the cartridge, and outlines the tasks involved in installing the Oracle Communications IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge, and IP Service Activator support for Cisco devices.
Cartridge OverviewIP Service Activator cartridges enable you to support your existing services, emerging services, and business needs. The cartridges operate in conjunction with the IP Service Activator core product. The Cisco IOS XR cartridges support the existing Label Switched Path (LSP), Layer 3 Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Virtual Private Network (VPN), Quality of Service (QoS), Layer 2 VPN, and Interface Configuration Management modules. For more information, see IP Service Activator Concepts.
Installing the CartridgeFor cartridge installation procedures, see IP Service Activator Installation Guide.
IP Service Activator supports extensible configuration policies that can be viewed and edited using the IP Service Activator graphical user interface (GUI), the OSS Integration Manager (OIM), and also the OSS Java Development Library (OJDL).
For the configuration policy installation procedure, see IP Service Activator Installation Guide.
For more information on configuration policies, interface policy registration and interface/sub-interface creation, see IP Service Activator online Help.

Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR 2-1
2Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR
This chapter explains the steps you need to perform before and after upgrading to Cisco IOS XR.
PrerequisitesBefore performing the Cisco IOS XR upgrade, complete the following tasks for the device you are upgrading:
1. It is recommended that you resolve as many concretes as possible that are in a conflict or disabled state. Keep a record of those which you can resolve.
2. Run an audit to determine whether Oracle Communications IP Service Activator and the device configuration are synchronized. If there are missing commands, consider re-issuing them to clean up the audit. Preserve the audit output.
For more information on viewing audit logs, see IP Service Activator System Administrator’s Guide.
3. Stop all provisioning on the device.
4. Unmanage the device.
Upgrading to Cisco IOS XRFor instructions on upgrading to Cisco IOS XR, see the Cisco documentation.
Post-upgrade TasksAfter performing the Cisco IOS XR upgrade, complete the following tasks for the device you have upgraded:
1. Reset the device capabilities:
a. Right-click the device and select Properties.
b. Select the Capabilities property page.
c. Click Reset Device Capabilities.
d. In the confirmation popup, click Yes.
Note: It is not recommended for customers to perform a device IOS upgrade in a production network, unless they have performed acceptance testing prior to the upgrade.
Post-upgrade Tasks
2-2 IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR Cartridge Guide
e. Click OK and then Commit.
2. Modify the AutoDiscovery.cfg file by adding the following statement:
NoAutoPersistant:9;0;
This statement prevents configuration changes to interface name or interface snmp index number on a device when it is rediscovered.
See IP Service Activator System Administrator’s Guide for more information about AutoDiscover.cfg file.
3. Rediscover the device:
a. Right-click the device.
b. Select Discover.
4. Verify that the new IOS version was picked up by IP Service Activator:
a. Right-click the device.
b. Select Properties.
The Description field displays the new IOS version.
5. Manage the device and set it to offline test mode:
a. Right-click the device and select Properties.
b. Select the Management property page.
c. Select Offline Maintenance on the Command Delivery list.
d. Right-click the device and select Manage.
e. Click OK and then Commit.
You can access the audit log at the following location to confirm commands were processed in offline maintenance mode:
/opt/OracleCommunications/ServiceActivator/AuditTrails/npIosXr.audit.log
For more information about checking an audit trail log for a cartridge, see IP Service Activator System Administrator's Guide.
The audit log must be empty. If there are rejected concretes in step 1 of "Prerequisites" (based on the reason for rejection), you can view commands. These commands configure the service for the concrete and are related to rejected concretes. If so, you can continue.
If there are other commands, refer to the options documentation, and confirm that all the concretes used in installation are not in conflict. You must check if the capabilities were fetched correctly. If not, it may be because the registry was not set up correctly to point to the specific capabilities file.
If you view commands for non-rejected concretes, check the options. Review the options and see if there is an entry that controls the behavior you view. It is possible that the MIPSA registry entry you made for Device/IOS combination is not being applied. You must check the Network Processor logs to assist you in tracking this down.
Post-upgrade Tasks
Upgrading to Cisco IOS XR 2-3
When you manage the device in offline maintenance mode, the following message appears in the Current Faults pane for concretes associated with the managed device:
Changes to configuration were attempted while in an Offline Mode;some configuration has not been applied to the device.
You can safely ignore this message.
6. Right-click the device, select Command Delivery, select Online, and then select Commit.
IP Service Activator retries sending any rejected configuration.
7. Run an audit to verify that IP Service Activator and the device configuration are synchronized:
a. Right-click the device and select Properties.
b. Select the Audit/Migrate property page.
c. Click the Initiate Audit button.
d. When the audit is finished, click Detach Audit. Then right-click in the new window that appears, choose Select All and copy-paste the text to another application or file.
The device is ready for provisioning through IP Service Activator.
Note: Ideally for every new Device/IOS combination, you must perfect the Network Processor configuration on a lab system, and then apply the changes to the live system after it is debugged. To access the Network Processor logs to confirm processing of the configuration after managing the device:

Device Configuration 3-1
3Device Configuration
This chapter details the authentication methods supported on Oracle Communications IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge, and describes the required manual pre-configuration to support various options and services.
Supported Authentication MethodsThe IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge supports the following authentication methods on all devices:
■ Telnet with TACACS+
■ SSH with password authentication
Manual Pre-configurationThis section describes the manual pre-configuration required by the IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge to support various options and services.
Configuring SNMPSimple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) must be enabled on all routers for the IP Service Activator discovery process to work. Ensure the following line is included in the router configuration:
snmp-server community community-name RO
Configuring SSHTo use Secure Shell (SSH) authentication, you need to configure an SSH server on the device.
The device must have a hostname and domain-name.
Note: Anonymous without enable is invalid for Cisco.
Note: Set up SNMP for the IP Service Activator discovery process using a community name (typically public). You can set the authentication as required. As a best practice make the Community read-only. The network discovery process uses a default community of public; you will need to amend the appropriate SNMP parameter in the Discovery dialog if you set a different read community on the devices.
Manual Pre-configuration
3-2 IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR Cartridge Guide
In configuration mode, enter the following commands:
crypto key generate rsa
You are prompted for a modulus size for the key. The default is 512, but Cisco recommends the use of a minimum modulus size of 1024 bits.
ip ssh time-out 120ip ssh authentication-retries 3
Note: On later versions of IOS, SSH is configured automatically when the device is booted. For more information, see the Cisco documentation.

Cisco Pre-checks and Post-checks 4-1
4Cisco Pre-checks and Post-checks
This chapter describes the pre-checks and post-checks that can be run and explains how to install, enable, and disable them. It also describes the behavior of the individual pre-checks and post-checks for the Oracle Communications IP Service Activator Cisco IOS XR cartridge.
About Pre-checks and Post-checksPre-checks look for existing configuration on a device when you commit a configuration. This prevents disruption of existing services.
Pre-checks also determine if the IP Service Activator configuration will create conflicts with an existing configuration, during creation of a new service instance by IP Service Activator. In case a conflict is detected, the operation is aborted and an error message generated.
The post-checks look for the configuration after it has been applied on a device. Post-checks determine if an IP Service Activator configuration is really configured on the device or silently rejected by that device, after an IP Service Activator creates a new service instance. An error message is generated if the device silently rejects the configuration, and the applied configuration is rolled back.
Post-checks can validate successful application of a configuration beyond the simple validation offered by the device response during command issue.
Installing Pre-checks and Post-checksThe standard pre-checks and post-checks are installed when IP Service Activator is installed. However, currently, there are no post-checks implemented for Cisco IOS XR cartridges. For more information, see IP Service Activator Installation Guide.
Enabling/Disabling Pre-checks and Post-checksYou can enable pre-checks and post-checks using the standard.properties file. The file is located in the following directory:
Config/networkProcessor/com/metasolv/serviceactivator/cartridges/cisco/pre_check/standard.properties
To disable a particular pre-check or post-check change its value to false, as shown in the example below. The value true indicates an enabled pre-check or post-check.
<checkProperties xmlns="http://www.metasolv.com/ serviceactivator/checkproperties"> <preCheckRouteMap>true</preCheckRouteMap>
